Re: Direct Access to SBS from Client Computer

Does the user have domain admin or local admin permissions? A domain admin
is required to join the computer to the domain.

Is there a special selection in SBS that would make the user able to join
the
computer to the network? The user I am trying has admin capabilities.

You might try disabling any antivirus or 3rd party firewall software that

active on the workstation and then try running ConnectComputer (or using
the
Change button) to join the network again. Make sure you are using an
account with domain admin permissions to join the computer to the
network.
Once joined, reboot and log on to the domain (not the local PC).

I wonder if this anything to do with when I originally ran
connectcomputer.
It asked to click on connect to network and then for me to enter User
Name
and password I wanted to join with on domain. Then it asked which user
I
wanted to migrate to the client computer. Then it asked which computer
to
assign this client. Then it said Completing the Network Config Wizard
and
here are the settings.
The computer name.
The computer will be joined to the follwoing domain.
The following users will be added to the local administrators group.
The Network Configuration Wizard must restart. <Finish>.

An error occurred when configuring the networking settings.
<Connect to the network now>

Possble problem?

All your computers should be joined to the domain (use the
ConnectComputer
wizard). SBS 2003 is a "domain controller" and exercises dominion
over
its
subjects (your workstations) once they're a part of that domain.

(All workstations should be WinXP Pro, Win2000, WinNT 4.0 or (shudder)
Win98. WinXP Home Edition cannot join a domain).

Then grant your users the appropriate permissions for the shared
folder
and
in the SBS_Login_Script.bat, you would enter a line similar to:

net use <mapped_drive_letter>: \\<sbsservername>\<sharename>

(net use p: \\servername\sharename) - note the space between the ":"
and
the "\\"

Okay I found the Logon Script, but I'm not exactly sure what to put
in
there.
It currently say SBS_LOGIN_SCRIPT.bat . And on the Client am I
supposed
to
My Computer, take it off WorkGroup and join it to the Domain or is
that
not
necessary?

Thanks again.

What's the best way to setup the client computer to be able to
see
files and
folders on the SBS? On regular computers they go through a work
group,
but
how is it setup on and securitys given to a client computer
accessing
the
domain?

Thanks
